WARREN * "Treat your women well and be kind to them for they are your partners and committed helpers." From the Farewell Address of the Holy Prophet Muhammad1 I. INTRODUCTION By the end of February 632 and at the age of sixty-three, the Prophet Muhammad believed that his days on earth were coming to an end.2 He announced to his followers that he would lead the hajj, the annual pilgrimage to Mecca, himself that year.3 On March 3, the Prophet delivered his farewell sermon near Mount Arafat.4 Among the limited number of topics he chose to include in his last public speech, he encouraged his followers to deal justly with one another and treat women well. 5 In the modem era, the rights of women under Islamic law have come under heightened scrutiny. Some commentators find the Prophet's farewell speech to be inconsistent with the way women are treated in some areas of the Muslim world. In Saudi Arabia, for example, women may neither drive nor vote.

In this regard, this article aims to reveal the ritual of the hajj in the ancient Arab society which is different from the current practice of Muslims nowadays. This article is a qualitative study using content analysis. The finding reveals that although Arab community remained to believe in Allah, but in view to the long gap between the two ages of Prophet Abraham and Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H.), they had mixed up the implementation of a true and wrong rituals in their pilgrimage. Keywords: Pilgrimage, Pagan Arabs, Kaaba, Mecca Introduction The term Jahiliyyah is derived from jahl which connotes a description of pre-Islamic Arab society who were ignorance of the God, the prophets, the way of life, and who were also arrogantly and imperiously proud of their lineage (Ibn Manzur n.d.). It was a dark age of the Arab history with the absence of divine light to guide their faith, and their lives were fully deviated and strayed from the religious method.

Islam: Crime and Punishment Justice
Islam: Crime and Punishment Justice The Qur’an describes God as just. Because God is just, justice must be of the highest importance for all Muslims The Qu’ran says that God wants people to treat each other fairly and to establish justice: “God commands justice, the doing of good…and He forbids all shameful deeds and injustice.” Surah 16:90 Muslim’s believe that it is part of their role as vicegerents of God’s creation to behave justly to other people and to ensure that the world is run in a fair way. Allah commands Muslims to be just that means the unjust must be punished, “God commands justice and good conduct to all… and he forbids all immorality, bad conduct and oppression” Surah 16:90 Every Muslim is free to choose good or bad behaviour (freewill) and must accept that their actions will affect their relationship with God and the society around them. Muslims will be judged on Judgement day “People beware of injustice, for justice shall be darkness on the Day of Judgement”. There are many hadith (sayings of the Prophet Muhammad) in which Muhammad is shown as acting justly and telling Muslims to treat everyone justly and equally. “Stand up firmly for justice, as a witness to God, even as against yourselves or your parents or your kin, and whether it be against rich or poor.’” Surah 4:35 Shari’ah For Muslims the fair way to act justly is through Shari’ah, literally “a path to be followed”, It is a system of law covering moral, social, economic, political and religious life, based on the Qur’an and the Sunnah and is used by Muslims to make moral decisions.

Presentation 6 (1).Key
Foundations of Islam By Hannah R. The Qur'an The Quran was written in approximately 609 CE by a man named Muhammad, the Muslims believe that Muhammad was spoken to by God through an angel named Gabriel, through a 23 year period. Muslims regard the Quran as the most important miracle of Muhammad, a proof of his prophethood. According to traditional narrative, several companions of Muhammad served as scribes and were responsible for writing down the revelations. Shortly afer Muhammad's death, the Quran was compiled by his companions who wrote down or memorized parts of it. Chapters of the Quran are caled suras and verses are caled ayahs. The five pillars of Islamic Faith The five pilars of Islam are the guide lines for Muslims to live a good life. The first of the five are, 1.The testimony of faith The testimony of faith is saying, with conviction " La ilaha ila Alah, Muhannadur rasoolu Alah." Which in English translates to "there is no god but God, and Muhammad is the messenger of God." The first part of this saying, means that no one is to be worshiped but God and God alone meaning God has no son or holy spirt. The testimony of faith is caled shahada and it is to be said with conviction in order to convert to Islam, according to the Muslims the testimony of faith is the most important of al the pilars. 2. Prayer Muslims are to pray five times a day at dawn, noon, mid-afernoon, sunset and night. Every prayer only takes a few minutes, prayer in Islam is a direct link between worshiper and God and can be done anywhere, but you're supposed to face towards Mecca because it is the birthplace of Muhammad.
